In olden days

The home of Rob Manouse at 73 Aspetuck Ave. in New Milford is an eye-catcher on its own account, built in 1890 and still standing proudly just south of the Canterbury School campus. In its early days, the property also featured a windmill and a water tower. A source of pride for Mr. Manouse is a well that has "1707" carved into a foundation stone, indicating it might well date back to the formative days of the town.
